Swift Therapy

Swift Therapy for Warts

What Is Swift Therapy

Swift is a new technology, developed in the UK, which has been licenced for the general treatment of skin warts in Podiatry and Dermatology.



Swift uses microwave energy which is delivered through a special probe applied to the skin to treat the affected tissue.

How does Swift Therapy Work

The microwaves generated by the SWIFT machine excite the water molecules and cause friction. This friction heats up the skin cells to 42-45 C° which puts the virally infected cells of the wart into a state of stress.



The stressed cells release “danger signalling” heat shock proteins which induces maturation of Langerhans cells and enhances their migration to the lymph nodes.



Cytotoxic T cells migrate to the epidermis and begin to destroy all virally infected cells.
